We're floating down the stream of time, we have not long to stay
The stormy clouds of darkness will turn to brightest day
Then let us all take courage, for we're not left alone
The life boat soon is coming to gather the jewels home
Then cheer my brother, cheer our trials will soon be o'er
Our loved ones we shall meet upon the golden shore
We're pilgrims and we're strangers here, we're seeking the city to come
The life boat soon is coming to gather the jewels home
Sometimes the devil tempts me and says it's all in vain
To try to live a Christian life and walk in Jesus' name
But then we hear the Master say, "I'll lead you a helping hand
And if you'll only trust me, I'll guide you to that land"
Now is the time to get on board while she is passing by
But if you stand and wait too long, you shall forever die
The fairest bank for one and all on board there is no fear
Get ready, Christ's the captain, oh, look she's almost here
Then cheer my brother, cheer our trials will soon be o'er
Our loved ones we shall meet upon the golden shore
We're pilgrims and we're strangers here, we're seeking the city to come
The life boat soon is coming to gather the jewels home
